How Do I Make a Full Table Row Clickable?
Update 7/28/2010: I just wrote a new version of this article using jQuery. You can find the new article here.
It's a common scenario to display an HTML table with items, like products, employees and so on, and then link each item to a detail page where you can display the full details of this item.
The link is often represented by a button or text link in one of the columns. But to make it easier for your users to select a specific item, you could make the full row clickable. With a bit of JavaScript, this is pretty easy to do.

Passing Multiple Parameters to a Crystal Report Programmatically
Passing a parameter to a Crystal Report is easy; all you need to do is drop a ready-made parameter field from the Field Explorer to your report and when the report is loaded, the user is asked for the parameter's value automatically.
Passing multiple parameter values to a report programmatically is a bit trickier.
How Do I Avoid Merged Properties in the Property Grid?
Under normal circumstances, when you select multiple controls on a Web page, the property grid for the designer, like Visual Studio .NET or the Web Matrix, shows an intersection of the properties of the controls you selected. That is, it merges the properties that exist in all the controls and shows them in the grid as one property. This is often very useful as it allows you to quickly set the properties of a lot of controls to the same values, like the font for example.
How Do I Hide the Properties of My Server Control From the Property Grid?
Enhancing Design-Time Support in your Controls
Server controls allow a page developer to drag and drop a page together in no to time. Most of these controls come "out of the box" with ASP.NET like the TextBox, the Label, the DataGrid and many other controls. Changing the appearance and behavior of these controls is often as easy as visually setting a few properties in the properties grid for your design application, like Visual Studio .NET or the Web Matrix.. To make this process even easier, many properties can be expanded and collapsed in the property grid. By collapsing a property like the Font style, you end up with a shorter and much cleaner property list, making it easier to locate and change your properties.
Adding these collapsible properties to your own server controls is possible as well. This article will guide you through the process of creating a simple server control that exposes a collapsible property in the property grid of visual designers like Visual Studio.NET or the Web Matrix.
